Biometric Sample Quality, Standardization

Abstract

Open documented data structures for universally interpretable interchange of biometric sample quality data. Biometric data interchange standards are needed to allow the recipient of a data record to successfully process data from an arbitrary producer. This defines biometric interoperability and the connotation of the phrase “successfully process” the data, in this case, Biometric Sample Quality score, can be accurately exchanged and interpreted by different applications. This can only be achieved if the data record is both syntactically and semantically conformant to the documentary standard.
